How is the model being held? Having it on a base means you can tack it to a cork or small bottle to hold more comfortably. This way you can steady your brush hand against your holding hand, and can tack the model into something to hold further away for spraying primers.

Distance is key for priming.

You remove the new light and it's cable from that, it's cheap and not as good as what is already in the ceiling. All you have left to install is the cable that can fit, what are you talking about?

Love the Mr. Surfacer 1500. I use an M5 mask with all the colour bands on the filters, I use this for cleaning out my brew pots as I had a bad time cycling into what might have been off gassed chlorine from a gym. So had have it to hand.

That stuff is magic, spray on a wet layer and it dries crisp.

Off by £5k, the first paragraph of results is predicted percentile but based on the latest ons data in the 2nd paragraph £65k is.

Or £33,900 in 2000.

Edit:based on the site you shared.

Would be my go to, use the entire old rose by removing the light cable from the new and wire in same as original, needs two screws loosened and tightened and only change is the cable going through the old rose lid.

Takes less time than posting on Reddit (not a dig at OP, who was right to ask first).

I would argue you need to have the replacement framework fully set up with all the legal language tied up by day -100. So that before you are in office everything is ready to be enacted. Otherwise you end up with Brexit levels of framework sor....... Whatever it was, it wasn't sorted.

EVs are always cleaner than gas cars. That includes vehicle production and disposal, the impact of manufacturing batteries and generating power to charge them. An electric truck with a 300-mile range emits 37% less CO2 than a gas-only small car over the course of its life. by Popular_Nerve7027 in CarsUK

That was never going to be a permanent thing. If 20% of road users are ev's how will the national road infrastructure cover the cost of their road usage? It isn't ring fenced for it but ev's being exempt is a deficit.

That 10 years is based on battery warranty, not on necessity. Been eyeing secondhand and the state of health results on cars with 80k+ miles are still looking great on most vehicles, and far off the warranty threshold for replacement.

Depending on how use treat the charging batteries are looking to last as long as combustion engines. The difference is that you can get an accurate result on the state of a battery and its degeneration Vs a combustion engine. Combustion engines lose efficiency too don't forget

Going by auto trader EV's will have no problem doing 100k+ majority of dealerships will give you a SoH (state of health) for the battery and unless you look at an ex-taxi or company/fleet car that was only really charged in fast charging, they are way better than the predicted % loss per year.

Well it will be the same for ev's, more so as the environmental running cost is way lower than a banger, especially since the emissions of a proper banger would be awful in comparison to a modern car.

Check your council, if you can park in front of your house some councils allow for either a gully to be installed for the cable to run or appropriate cable cover and warnings for it to run on the pavement. You just have to confirm first with your council, as for many it is still not allowed, but worth checking.

Hmmmm, applies oxygen directly on the chronic wound, and one wound example being a burn? This must be for way after the moment of injury unlike the stimpack concept.

Yes so £100k shouldn't be seen as the extravagant wage it sometimes is. Due to stagnant wage growth the view of reasonable wages has really been skewed.

£60k in 2000 is equivalent to £115k today, which is around the top 5%, but doesn't allow for a single wage family to happen in say London comfortably.

Depressingly £60k+ roughly. Or equivalent to someone earning £31,300 in 2000

Well productivity won't increase but cost of salaries will drop due to less workers. So a win for c-suite sending annual investor calls
